Radiative Transfer in Accreting Environments

<p>Accretion onto compact objects plays a central role in high-energy astrophysics. The process of accretion can substantially affect the magnetic field strength and geometry (e.g, via the magneto-rotational instability or dynamo processes) and the accreting plasma density. The presence of t...
